Happy Anniversary to Us!!

Jeroy and I celebrated our 1st Anniversary together this weekend. Today is the actual day!!! Its been a year full of deep conversations and kisses, long drives and hugs, sweet thoughts, and plenty of patience for the distance between us. As my gift to us I planned a photo session to document the love, laughs, and embraces we share.

The shoot was sooo much fun! I decided to get some help from Danielle at Urban Glamour. She did my makeup and helped us with styling. It definitely made a difference in our look. Jeroy was sooo funny when he saw me with the makeup on... he loved it and said we have to hire Danielle every weekend... he almost got in trouble for that one!

My wonderful photographer Ricardo Piggott, we call him Jay, got the pictures to me today which is so fast. I am going to do the editing and am so happy to have worked with such a cool photographer!! We have to do this again next year.

Here is one of his favorites!

I love to hula hoop! I know I mentioned that on here before. So it was incorporated into the shoot! We actually shot at the Brooklyn Promenade and at Coney Island. The hula hoop was saved for the boardwalk! I know people thought I was a nut.

Gotta make sure he is checking out the hips!!!! This one is my fav!

We ran into a cool group of "Hobos" who have been riding freight trains around the northeast! It was so cool talking to them!

I smiled so much during this shoot. Its kinda how I have been all year... smiling!

Our first stop was the promenade so let me go back for a moment...

Back to Coney Island and the sun is setting...

All in all I am so happy with the shoot... I could continue to post pictures but these are my "must share now" images. There is so much love between us and he really captured it.

This is my first time leaving a comment...and all I can say is awww that's so cute. Love is just a wonderful thing. I'm going to have to tell my friend about your wonderful photo shoot. Maybe she and her husband can do something like that for their 9th anniversary.
Well congrats...and many more.

Okay, those photos are awesome! Love his line of vision in the hula hoop shot! You guys are really adorable together, and these photos captured a lot of heat. BTW, he is so much cuter than Jay-Z! (I think I remember you comparing the two at some point).
